Strengthen gun laws across entire nation

Regarding the massacre in Connecticut, when will such mass killings stop?

They will stop when our federal and state legislatures take action to strengthen our gun laws in all 50 states. There isn't any reason for an average person to be allowed to purchase 9mm handguns. Gun show dealers also should be better regulated as to check on purchasers.

Those legislators who accept contributions from the National Rifle Association and similar groups have their share of blame, too.

Since the Columbine massacre, our nation has become the new killing fields. The Second Amendment was not intended to allow gun abuses that we have too long endured.

Our legislatures should now get busy and close the gun-law loopholes at every level.
